Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 313 Huang's Liannu and King-class Battleship

Seeing Ma Liang listening intently, Cheng Huang smiled and asked, "Mr. Ji Chang, how has the territory developed in recent months?"

Speaking of his own job, Ma Liang looked serious.

"Returning to my lord, the territory is developing well, and the newly-built subsidiary territory on the north bank of Dongting Lake has also developed into a county seat. In addition, various industries have developed greatly. Oh, yes. General Zhao's wife, Mrs. Huang, gave me a A blueprint, please read it, my lord."

"Huang Yueying," Cheng Huang was slightly taken aback, took the blueprint handed over by Ma Liang, and looked at it.

I saw a small crossbow and various data on the blueprint.

"This is it!" Cheng Huang rubbed his eyes in disbelief, ten crossbow slots, this is a Liannu!The most powerful bow and crossbow in the Three Kingdoms period was not the God-destroying crossbow, but this kind of continuous-firing Zhuge crossbow!

Zhuge Liannu was designed by Zhuge Liang.But from this point of view, it was not Zhuge Liang who designed this crossbow, but Huang Yueying.

Although this kind of continuous crossbow has a short range, it can be fired continuously. The interval between two crossbow bolts does not exceed one second, and it can carry out intensive strikes without aiming at all.

Even in a chaotic army, you can catch your opponent by surprise.

"Haha!" Cheng Huang laughed loudly: "Siblings and sisters are really ingenious! Mr. Ji Chang, immediately hand over this drawing to the Military Aircraft Department and let them make a batch. Oh, by the way, I will name this crossbow Huang Huang. Liannu."

"Okay," Ma Liang took the drawing and was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly turned around. "My lord, I almost forgot to tell you that thirty handsome warships have been built, so my lord has to take a look!"

When Cheng Huang heard this, he immediately beamed with joy. The handsome warship, after the territory bonus, is a king-level warship!King-class warships probably didn't exist in the entire Han Dynasty.

"Okay, I'll take a look later." Cheng Huang nodded.

"I have one more thing to tell my lord. Junshan Island, which has disappeared for a long time, has appeared frequently recently, but it is still guarded by that big roc Garuda."

Cheng Huang nodded, indicating that he already knew.The last time I entered Junshan Island by trick, I got a lot of gains, and found out where Jing Ding was.

However, Cheng Huang suspects that the treasures of Junshan Island are not limited to this one, and there may be other secrets hidden.

Seeing Ma Liang walk out of the city lord's chamber, Cheng Huang picked up the city lord's handbook and checked the attributes of the territory.

Sure enough, as Ma Liang said, there are already a lot of various resource reserves in the territory, and various functional buildings have been upgraded to the top level.

In addition, in the four subsidiary counties of Xingyue City, the industries of each township have developed.

Cheng Huang was quite relieved to see the territory so prosperous.

After sitting in the city lord's meeting hall for a while, Cheng Huang walked out of the city lord's mansion, visited his master, went to Cai's mansion to chat with Cai Wenji for a while, and then walked to Xingyue City and arrived at the navy camp.

As soon as the soldiers saw Cheng Huang's arrival, they stepped forward to greet him. The guards had already reported in. After a while, Gan Ning and Jiang Qin came out with joyful faces and several naval leaders.

"Brother (lord)," a group of people immediately stepped forward and paid respects.We haven't seen each other for a few months, and everyone feels very cordial when they see Cheng Huang.

"Hehe," Cheng Huang said with a smile all over his face, "you have worked hard, generals, let's go, take me to see the king-class warship."

As soon as they heard that Cheng Huang wanted to see the warship, all the leaders immediately talked about the excellent performance of the warship, and Cheng Huang couldn't stop nodding.

Soon, everyone arrived at the navy wharf. Cheng Huang looked around and saw a row of giant warships docked on the lake.

These warships are covered in purple, which is a sign of extremely high quality.

"Brother," Gan Ning introduced to Cheng Huang as he walked, "This kind of warship is not only large in size, but also fast. It can accommodate a thousand sailors and will not dare to be crowded. In addition, each warship Equipped with twenty large Thunderbolt chariots, which can throw two hundred catties of boulders, and have prepared enough stone bullets. Coupled with the speed advantage of the warship, it is absolutely possible to chase the enemy's warship and attack."

Cheng Huang nodded while listening, extremely satisfied with the performance of the king-class warship.Under normal circumstances, if the warship is equipped with a thunderbolt car, the speed will be greatly reduced, and it is easy to be kited by the enemy's warship.

If it is equipped with a thunderbolt car and the speed is fast enough, it will be powerful.After catching up with the enemy's warship, a burst of stone bombs passed by. If the enemy's ship did not sink, it would be unreasonable.

Gan Ning introduced again: "The biggest feature of this warship is fire prevention. The hull and plywood are covered with a layer of cowhide, which is waterproof and not easy to burn."

Gan Ning introduced that a group of people had already boarded the warship.

Cheng Huang's eyes lit up, and he saw that this warship was indeed unusual. Standing on the warship, he could clearly feel the fluctuation of the wind attribute, that is to say, this warship had this speed bonus.

Cheng Huang looked east and west, the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.For this king-class warship, I didn't run away in vain!But now it seems that his efforts have not been in vain.

"Xingba," Cheng Huang said with a smile, "I have some good news to announce. The emperor has ordered me to take charge of the Yangtze River waterway. From now on, our warships can cruise in the Yangtze River, and we can train troops in the Yangtze River. , it’s already our back garden.”

"Really?" Gan Ning was delighted. As the commander of the navy, he certainly hoped that his navy could gallop freely.This is indeed good news for the Dongting Navy.

The other leaders also had joyful expressions on their faces.

"Hehe," Cheng Huang said with a smile, "When have I lied to you? In the future, our Dongting navy can fly the banner of cruising. If soldiers and horses of other forces want to cross the Yangtze River, they have to ask me if the Dongting navy will agree." .Ha ha!"

In order to test the performance of the warship, Cheng Huang ordered people to start the warship, and sailed around Dongting with a group of naval leaders.

Compared with the battleships in the real world, this speed is probably not too much, which makes Cheng Huang more satisfied.

After experiencing the king-class warship, Cheng Huang went to the water army camp to inspect again, and then took a group of water army leaders to Jiasheng Restaurant, where they ate and drank a lot.

It was getting late, and the leaders took their leave.

Gan Ning wanted to leave, but was stopped by Cheng Huang.

"Xingba," Cheng Huang said in a deep voice: "After a few months of separation, our brothers haven't gotten close. How do you feel after getting married? How are the brothers and sisters?"

In the restaurant, the two brothers chatted for a long time facing the moonlight.In addition to personal matters, Cheng Huang also told about the situation in Luoyang, and at the same time explained many things to Gan Ning.

After all, in the days when Cheng Huang was away, Gan Ning commanded the entire army in Dongting and was the number one figure in Dongting.

Hearing that the troubled times are about to begin, Gan Ning became complacent, and the blood in his heart began to burn.

It wasn't until late at night that the two left Jiasheng Restaurant and parted ways.
